Blessings to all the SFDS Dads!
We hope you enjoyed your special day! Know that you are in our prayers and that we appreciate all the love and sacrifice that provide for your families, our school and our parish.
School This Fall
Superintendent of Catholic Schools, Adam Dufault has shared a letter to our parents of what our hopes and plans look like at the moment for school opening in the fall. Be assured of our concern for the health and safety of everyone in the school buildings. Of course, we need to be flexible as we receive guidance from the State Health and Education Departments, but our greatest desire is to rejoin in community with one another. Read the letter.
Mrs. Mummey and Mr. Watson also have a letter to share specific to our school.
Join us this summer for the first-ever Youth Ministry Alpha - all completely online! Hundreds of our parish adults have gone through Alpha and now it's time to take it next level and share the experience with our youth, grades 6 - 12. Sessions are Sundays at 7 pm. All are welcome! Contact Grace Wright for info or to register.

Cheerleading Team
Cheerleading season is right around the corner, and though we are unsure of what the season will look like, I wanted to send out a message for the upcoming 2020 season. If your daughter will be entering the 5th, 6th, 7th, or 8th grade and are interested in cheering, please contact DiAnna Green by email at digreen@windstream.net or by cell 740.403.1062 . We will be starting open conditioning as soon as possible. We are working in unison with our Newark Catholic Varsity Cheer program and look forward to building a strong Cheer Program for all athletes.
Please note: 5th/6th Cheer - football, 7th/8th Cheer - football/basketball
*Contact me regardless of season interested as our seasons overlap and I need to be able to communicate information.
GO GREENWAVE!!!
